| Up is Better |

Dad was finally released from the hospital and we are both exhausted. I went back to work and Dad mostly slept all day. He's back on his normal schedule now, peeing and pooping at at both the required volume and frequency (enough said). Even though he has only awakened in order to eat for the last two days, he is still very weak from the trauma of thirteen long, hard days in the "medical hotel". While Dad was up eating lunch, he announced that he could not wait to go back to sleep. As always, I asked him if he needed to make a "pit stop" before he returned to his nap. "Once you are back in bed, it is taxing for you to get up" I reminded. "And if I don't get up, it's wet." He replied. We mutually agreed "up" was better than "wet", and off to the bathroom he went! |
